Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma is well known for his one-liners on the field and on multiple occasions, his comments have gone viral after they were caught on the stump mic.

A similar incident happened on Day 1 of the fifth Test match against England in Dharamsala on Tuesday as his comment left fans in splits.

As Jonny Bairstow came out to bat during England's first innings, Rohit was having a conversation with a teammate about England batters not preferring off-side shots.

In true Rohit fashion, the India skipper quipped - "Isko Toh Kuch Bhi Daal (Bowl whatever you want to him)". The remark was captured on the stump mic and the video of the incident has gone viral on social media.

After any loss, it's a tough time for any team. The same is the case with Mumbai Indians, who began their journey under new skipper Hardik Pandya on a losing note. The five-time champions went down to Gujarat Titans on Sunday, which was Pandya's former franchise. Since the time he was made skipper in place of Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya has been under intense scrutiny. He himself must have felt the eyeballs following him a little bit more than in earlier years.
